| Cobretti2 said: I agree Retro could have been the key to the west, however the problem is Nintendo will never let their franchises grow beyond what they are or take big risks on new franchises. Look at star fox for example I bet when that launches it will be a HD version of the N64 game with some slight addons. The characters alone in star fox have/had the potential to build a big epic game with CGI, acting and story. Imagine a star fox game that matched uncharted and the last of us in quality. It would be an epic franchise that would suit all ages. Retro should have had Metroid Prime 4 ready for Wii U launch and now be well underway into a new IP project. |
It will be. and it could be so much more.
In my head starfox could be a 4 player co-op gears of war esque style game. It has all the world building in place to allow for it. A western esque game that Nintendo needs while still maintaining a well known Nintendo IP.
However I also agree with OP. Nintendo needs a studio that will produce Western focused epic games that a large portion of the market wants. It would diversify their lineup and help build a fanbase for those kind of games.
